Review for the 3rd edition by Vladimir P. Kurenok (MathSciNet)

"The 3rd edition of the book has been further extended and improved. The textbook is based on a series of lectures taught by the author for many years at the Mathematical Institute of the University of Munich. The material of the book covers two one-semester courses in probability and mathematical statistics, respectively. All chapters are equipped with exercises of varying degrees of difficulty that help to c

Paul Erdos amava parlare del Libro in cui Dio conserva le dimostrazioni perfette per i teoremi matematici, seguendo il detto di G. H. Hardy secondo il quale non vi è posto perenne per la matematica brutta. Erdos disse anche che non è necessario credere in Dio, tuttavia in quanto matematici si deve credere nel Libro. Alcuni anni fa gli autori gli suggerirono di scrivere una prima (e assai modesta) approssimazione del Libro. Egli fu entusiasta e, come gli era peculiare,

In diesem zweiten Teil von Stochastik kompakt erläutert Heinz Klaus Strick Grundbegriffe und Methoden der Beurteilenden Statistik. Mithilfe der Sigma-Regeln für Binomialverteilungen können Prognosen für Zufallsversuche vorgenommen werden, wobei zwischen verträglichen und signifikant abweichenden Stichprobenergebnissen unterschieden wird. Hieraus wird die Vorgehensweise beim Testen von Hypothesen entwickelt, einschließlich der damit verbundenen Fehlerbetrachtungen. Am Ende wird der Bino

Considering the stupendous gain in importance, in the banking and insurance industries since the early 1990’s, of mathematical methodology, especially probabilistic methodology, it was a very natural idea for the French "Académie des Sciences" to propose a series of public lectures, accessible to an educated audience, to promote a wider understanding for some of the fundamental ideas, techniques and new tools of the financial industries.

These lectures were given at the "Académie d

Most of us are intuitively familiar with small social systems, such as families and soccer teams. Surprisingly, though, most of us are unaware of how complex these systems are or of the fact that they have a unique character distinguishing them from both populations and individuals. The current manuscript, which emerged from high-level scientific publications on the subject, aims to bridge this gap in our understanding of small social systems. The book aims to explain, illustrate, and model t
